I got around one window, 3 pieces and I'm burnt out. It wasn't a decision, I just have to stop. Taking the day off tomorrow then back to work for two weeks before my next vacation starts. Over all it was a good week and the weather couldn't have been better. When I get a new piece up here and there I'll let you know.

It was a pretty good day. I set out 10 pieces this morning determined to get them on the house. Considering I had to work around the wheel well it was a good feeling to get 12 pieces! Hope it carries over to a productive day tomorrow...

Realistically it doesn't look like the siding will be finished by the end of my vacation week. Thought I'd get the other side prepped and started and try to get to the bottom of the windows since it requires time consuming cuts. I figure I can add above that as I get time in short spurts. Back for more tomorrow, hope it will look like some progress was made unlike today...

This may not look like much but it kicked my but today. I'm worried I won't be able to finish the siding during this vacation week but I'll keep going one piece at a time. I've got to get to the top on this side tomorrow to have a chance of finishing on Sunday. The weather has to keep holding out too

So far so good. Happy with what got done today. Last year I had two weeks of vacation to start my build at the end of October (2012). The first week it rained non-stop. This year the weather is looking good all week so hoping to get a lot done. Here are the pics...

Here's the latest, I'll start with some roofing news. The two end panels were placed the other day with no problem. The roof cap was ready. Unfortunately my Z piece to hold the cap was the wrong size...uggh! Another setback but I'm not going to worry about it.

My roofer had some concerns about moisture getting in where I screwed in the trim pieces so today I sealed those areas the best I could. I'm thinking it should be in good shape now.

The next wall got a good head start on siding which was a bonus today. Next week starts my vacation so I'm planning on hitting it hard...
